Zodiac Aerospace

Zodiac set out to master the elements in 1896, as an aeronautical firm developing airships and airplanes. Then, in the 1930s, we invented the concept of the inflatable boat, whose commercial success after World War II established the Zodiac brand image. Our growth strategy since the late 1970s has enhanced Zodiac's recognition, shaping us into a diversified corporation with a worldwide presence an

d a blue-chip stock. After the divestment of the Marine activities in September 2007, the Group is now refocused on aerospace. Zodiac Aerospace is pursuing its expansion to ensure steady growth in its business segments. Zodiac's technological competencies, which are sustained by rigorous manufacturing and management principles, now cater to specific niche markets, organized into three main Business Areas: Cabin Interiors, Aircraft Systems, AeroSafety & Technology. Each Segment emphasizes self-reliance and flexibility in order to exploit its synergies, foster a long-term commitment by our people, promote creativity, and stay tuned to the market. This managerial policy is rooted in Zodiac Aerospace's core values: humility, realism, entrepreneurial spirit and respect.
